I got some wine corks with no labels that are all very consistent in size. Some even look brand new. It looks like they used a needle to pierce the corks rather than a screw. They work very well. I also devised a 5/16" SS version of the retained chamber concept. There are two 5/16" x 1/2" long...

Thanks for posting the video. The air flow is so good through the U Tube. Pretty much the same as through the wine cork tube. I need to get some more wine corks bored, but should have some ready soon. Send me an email to alan@toasty-top.com and we can talk tubes.

If there was a little blow back from the water, it wouldn't make a mess since it is contained in the chamber. I would blow through the tube after removing it to clear the chamber.

Between hits the herb mass cools and sticks together. I have found that if I quickly start and stop the air flow, it will shake and break up the herb mass until it is a uniform thickness. The herb pops up and down and bounces around while you do it. I am also able to blow back into the roasting...

Thanks for posting the videos @Madcap79 Thanks for posting the WonG photo @Jeppy Thanks for posting the photo and video @momofthegoons A very nice first video. That glass heater cover can really crank out the heat. Makes it a tough decision on which to get. The WonG seems to be working wight...

I just devised a fluidization roasting tube that will work with the e-nano the other day. I have had great success using it with my HI. I'm sure it would work well with the PD and newer UD as well. It is made from wine corks, 13mm glass tubing, and 1/2" ss screens. Should even be able to use a...

This style of roasting tube will work with both the glass and ss heater covers. The only limitations I have on my roasting tubes is that the stainless steel roasting tips won't work with the glass heater cover. Otherwise they are all interchangeable. Was thinking about how I could use...

I have been enjoying my LSV with the glass heater cover installed again. I am using a DIY 18mm glass roasting tube that is using Fluidization for effective and tasty extraction. Most of the time I use it with a silicone whip connected to the top of the mouthpiece tube. It is sort of like using a...

I have been experimenting with the 18mm glass roasting tube to see why it produces such smooth vapor and have determined that I am creating a glass fluidization chamber. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluidization The Volcano, Herbalizer, and Cloud also utilize a fluidization chamber arrangement...

I installed the glass heater cover (minus the screen) back into my LSV to try out the 18mm glass roasting tube. It still has the ss heater cover installed as well. 10 watts is a very good starting point with the LSV. The flavor is as good as I expected it would be. I didn't get a transfer wand...

Another new roasting tube configuration to announce. It is a wine cork with a 1/2" hole bored through it. A 13mm x 1" long glass tube fits into one end and a 13mm x 3.5" long glass tube fits into the other. A 1/2" screen is captured between the tubes. The air flow is just amazing. So easy to...

Here are some photos of the 18mm glass roasting tube with the two screen configuration. It is always easier to explain with a photo. I am able to use fine mesh for both screens so the glass stays much cleaner. The smaller screen is shown on top of the 1" screen in the top photo for a size...

The list is still moving. Not always smoothly though. I send emails out to the address of the original email unless asked otherwise. If I don't hear back, I assume there is no longer an interest or financial ability to get one. Spam folder may sometimes catch an email too. The best way to check...

Very nice roasting tube bagelbanger. Silicone Turbo Tube is still my favorite roasting tube. Although I have been using my new 18mm glass roasting tube the most lately. I have an 18mm fitting with a straight section of tubing connected that works great for direct draw. It is 22 mm long so it...

@Caligula - The EV-2 has an 18mm connection. The nano tube is less than 10mm so there would be too much air leakage. @Zangano Cruel - Thanks. The modular design allows many different configurations. It is fun to build it yourself. @bagelbanger - You are correct. It isn't meant for the HI. It...

@Dr. Plutonious - Glad to hear you are enjoying your HI. That is incredible that you are getting such good performance at such a low voltage. It shows how efficient the HI is at converting electrical energy to energy for heating the air. You can now see why the Turbo Tube is still my favorite...

Was thinking about how I could use the 18mm glass roasting tube in an inverted orientation when it occurred to me that all I needed to do was install a 1" screen in the middle of the FtF adapter. Now I can use it with the heater unit in an upright position. A HT could be used if the MtM adapter...

Thanks toros23. The new 18mm roasting tube design is working very well so far. Nice that I don't have to use as much material to get the optimum fill depth. Speaking of roasting tube designs. Somebody was asking me about a tube modification that would prevent the HI 3/8" center tube from...

Nicotek is the company and Metro is the brand. The longer battery actually came from a disposable package. Seems like a waste to throw away rechargeable batteries for a one time use. They provide power longer than the shorter stock batteries. I have cleaned the screen several times now and it...

I have been looking for a solution to the problem of securely holding a screen inside of an 18mm roasting tube and having it easy to change out / clean. It had to be all glass and fit multiple configurations. I was thinking that it had to be done by a glass blower. I was wrong. I just needed the...
